5 Minute Autumn Fresh Table Runner Notes Before You start
- Eucalyptus is considered greenery. It can be found in most grocery stores year round. I pick it up at Trader Joe’s for 3.99 a bunch. I purchased everything fresh in this DIY at Trader Joe’s for less than $15.00. Also note, check the ends of the registers at Trader Joe’s before you pick your flowers. They most everyday have buckets of flowers and greenery that are free. They give one bunch to each guest at checkout.
- Eucalyptus smells wonderful and is perfect for drying and adding to dried arrangements. It also a great addition to wreaths and oh so pretty tucked in a napkin ring for a little something special in a place setting.
- Pick you pop of color roses to match your place settings. I chose orange to pull the color from my swan plates.
- If you are decorating your table more than 3 hours before your meal, place the trimmed princess roses in a small bowl filled with room temperature water. Tuck them in just before your guests arrive.
- If your grocery store does not carry princess roses, colorful longstems will work just fine.
- Please read this DIY through to the end before you start.
- There are so many plates to choose from for an autumn table. I am a fan of Home Goods for inexpensive seasonal place setting pieces. I got the swan plates here.

2. Starting with the two grouped squash on the left, fan out a few stems of the seeded eucalyptus from both directions. Repeat with the single squash at the right end of your table
3. Insert random pieces of eucalyptus fanning out from squash at both ends of your table.
4. Cascade the princess roses and a few sprigs of the seeded eucalyptus on the left end of the table by tucking them between the squash.
5. Gently tuck the roses under the squash on the right side of the table.
6. Stand back and fluff your masterpiece a little here and there. Set your table and Oh là là you are done!
